Now that Hetty (Linda Hunt) has returned and Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen) has finally put a ring on it, some might suspect that the CBS show will take a break from the emotional storylines for a change. We’re here to tell you to let go of that pipe dream, because the episode titled “Born to Run” is going to be filled with family drama.

The intelligence analyst, played by Renée Felice Smith, finds herself in a tricky situation when her sister turns to her for help. Ashley Rae Spillers takes on the role of Nell’s older sibling, Sydney. She reaches out to Nell when Sydney’s high school crush, Delon de Metz (Andre Martinez), gets involved in a Russian plot to steal intelligence from the Department of Defense.

You may recognize Ashley from her many appearances in movies and TV shows throughout the years. She’s had parts on Splitting Up Together, Vice Principals, and American Woman. We can understand how Ashley snagged the part of Nell’s sister—check out how similar they look!

Nell will likely be in the eye of the storm during “Born to Run,” but the rest of the agents aren’t going to get off that easy. Special Prosecutor John Rogers (Peter Jacobson) is also conducting performance reviews, and we all know how well the NCIS: Los Angeles crowd takes to authority figures.

To watch it all go down, tune in to NCIS: LA Sunday, March 24 at 9 p.m. EST on CBS.
